Progress
Yowls in the Night
There have been strange sounds around camp and every cat is unnerved. The Clan Leader has called a meeting to discuss it. The leader has chosen these cats to investigate the sounds and find out what is happening. The cats leave on their journey and they all perform a Focus Check, the group total of which determines what happens next.
Chasing the Wind
The cats attempt to follow the mournful howls, but the wind plays with their hearing and they can't tell which direction it is coming from. Soon, there is only one howl, which makes it easier to follow. The lead cat should perform a Listen Check at this point.
The Culprit
The group of cats find a rogue named Burr stuck in a cage, though they don't realize it is a cage. He tries to help as much as he can, but he is scared and doesn't understand much of what is going on.
The cats smell some form of food on the air and also hear some sort of Twoleg activity. They can decide whether to investigate the food smell or the Twoleg activity.
The Fading Voice
If the cats could not find the source of the yowling, they stop to shelter for the night. The next morning, they smell a bitter tang of food and hear Twoleg activity. They can decide on either of these two options or continue looking for the source of the yowling.
Lost in the Woods
The cats lose the source of the yowling and wander so far off the trail that they are lost. They have to return to camp and report to their leader that they did not find the source. The leader tells them the yowling has stopped, but the night guard is doubled in any case. The adventure is over, and the group failed.
